To assign ingress and egress QoS policies to a VLL L2 access interface on a 7210 SAS site

Note: You can assign policies and configure parameters for 7210 SAS NEs only when the system resource profile is appropriately configured for the device. See System resource profile in Chapter 6, Device support .

The available parameters and policies vary depending on the device type and chassis variant. The configurations that are supported on the site NE are shown on the form.

Steps
 

Choose Manage→Service→Services from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Services form opens.


Choose a VLL and click Properties. The VLL_type Service (Edit) form opens.


On the navigation tree, expand Site→L2 Access Interfaces, right-click on the L2 access interface, and choose Properties. The VLL L2 Access Interface (Edit) form opens.

If you are configuring an L2 Uplink SAP on a 7210 SAS-K site to preserve the dot1p values of ingress packets, expand to the Uplink SAP, open the properties form, and perform Step 4 and Step 10.


Click on the QoS tab and expand the 7210/7250 Specific panel.


Select a SAP Access Ingress policy in the Ingress Policy panel.

When you assign an ingress policy, the Color Mode parameter setting for the meters in the policy must coincide with the Enable DEI parameter setting on the physical port. When Enable DEI is selected, the Color Mode for meters must be set to Color Aware. When Enable DEI is not selected, the Color Mode for meters must be set to Color Blind. See To configure Ethernet ports and To configure a 7210, 7250, and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy .

If you are assigning a 7210, 7250, and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy that contains a 7210 FC Meter Map policy, you must select the Enable Table Classification parameter. See To configure a 7210, 7250, and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy.

To support H-metering, you must choose an ingress policy with all meter rate modes set to trTCM (RFC 4115).

For 7250 IXR sites, the selected SAP Access Ingress policy must contain an assigned 7250 Ingress CoS policy.


Select an egress policy in the Egress Policy panel.

See To configure a 7210 SAP access egress policy for more information about 7210 SAP access egress policies.

SAP-based remarking values are defined in a 7210 SAP access egress policy. To enable SAP-based remarking on the 7210 SAS-X, you must enable the SAP QoS Marking parameter on the port; see To configure Ethernet ports .


To enable table-based color-aware ingress classification, select the Enable Table Classification parameter. See Table-based ingress classification on the 7210 SAS.


Select an Egress Remarking policy in the Egress Remark Policy panel.


Configure the required parameters in the Aggregate Rate Limit panel.

You can configure the Ingress Meter Rate (kbps) and Ingress Meter Burst parameters only after SAP creation.

You can configure the Ingress Meter parameter only during SAP creation. The parameter must be set to true to support H-metering.

You can configure the Egress Meter Rate and Egress Meter Burst parameters only when resources are allocated to the SAP Egress Aggregate Meter parameter in the system resource profile; see To configure the global system resource profile on a 7210 SAS or 7250 IXR. To allocate resources on the 7210 SAS-R, configure the Egress SAP Aggregate Meter parameter in the system resource profile policy assigned to the device; see To configure a system resource profile policy for the 7210 SAS-R/T/Mxp, 7210 SAS-S/Sx, or 7210 SAS-S/Sx VC.

You must also enable port-based scheduling on 7210 SAS-Mxp and 7210 SAS-R NEs; see To configure port-based scheduling on the 7210 SAS.

The Enable Egress Meter Stats parameter is available when a value is configured for the Egress Meter Rate parameter.

For interfaces on 7210 SAS-K sites, configure the required parameters in the Egress Dot1p Remarking panel.

For access ports, configured parameters take effect only when the Remarking parameter is set to true in the 7210 SAP Access Egress policy assigned to the interface; see Step 6.

For L2 Uplink ports, configured parameters take effect only when the Remarking parameter is set to true in the 7210 and 1830 Network policy assigned to the port; see To assign QoS policies to a 7210 SAS Ethernet port.
